Climate Generation 2010

Seven Champions from Uzbekistan are going to attend the regional training, which will be organized by British Council in Nepal, 20-24 September, 2010. During the course of this training our delegates will learn about how to provide detailed information on climate change, what tools they can use to work in the communities, how to take the ownership of the sharing platforms (i.e. web, facebook, blogs) where they can exchange news and experiences.

The Climate Generation project is a global British Council programme which is delivered through a network of Climate Champions across 60 countries in the world. Climate Generation engages young people with a proactive interest in climate change and wish to take positive action at local, national and international levels.
